It is woven into a vertically long rhombus so that it takes after a traditional Kogin embroidery.

Mederu embroidery

Mederu uses chemical dyes and each thread is carefully hand-dyed by a dyeing craftsman.
Mederu embroidery is birthed with a lot of thoughts put together wishing it to become something that fascinates people by looking at it. The beauty of the thread colors, careful and deliberate hand works, artworks, and handicrafts that use this thread make it special.
